I pulled out my copy of the cookbook just for reference, I keep it on my bookshelf next to my copy of the Poor Man's James Bond 2. The 4 chapters of the book were "Drugs", "Electronics, Sabotage, and Surveillance" (The shortest), "Natural, Nonlethal, and Lethal Weapons", and "Explosives and Booby Traps".
I feel like "Drugs" would get expanded upon to showcase more modern stuff like Meth, Fent, Kratom, etc. The electronics/sabotage/surveillance chapter would double or triple in size easily, becoming the biggest in the book owing to our modern times and definitely include info on anonymizing yourself online along with in rallies/protests/riots, using the dark web, and more. Weaponry would get a nod towards 3d printing, maybe stuff on neutralizing gas for protestors/rioters. Explosives and Booby Traps wouldn't change too much.
If you wanna blow stuff up just get the Improvised Munitions Handbook

Curators from the Smithsonian will be at the GOP convention collecting items from buttons to banners. Their goal: to add objects to the museum’s collection that will ‘make sense of our moment.’

There is no federal law against buying or selling human remains and only a patchwork of state laws that go largely unenforced. That’s allowed the trade in so-called “medical specimens” to explode online.

Can Trump transfer his cult to a successor with a mere endorsement and forever continue a cycle of scrambling to vote for this "last" democrat.
Trump cares about not going to jail and Trump in approximately equal amounts. No way he lets someone else take the wheel. If he somehow became president again he'd start looking at repealing the 22nd before he'd endorse anyone else.
One of the R core strengths is falling in line. Not a chance they even whisper about ditching Trump.
I've started to see birther rumblings though idk if that one will get traction
Trump is now the oldest presidential nominee in history. She's about 20 years younger then him. She's unburdened by all of Biden's failures, and can claim all his successes. Also not being catholic she doesn't have to be weird about abortion and can be pro choice, which post-Roe is a HUGE deal for about 50% of the population. Trumpworld's best hit against her is her laugh, which is absolutely not doing numbers because... c'mon.
So yeah she's got a decent chance, but obviously anything can happen.
